County Meath has sustained rapid population growth over the last 20 years. This rapid growth has not been matched by the growth of sustainable employment within the county. Over the last three years there has been a transformation in work practices enabling some of those who commute daily from their homes to work at or closer to home.

Over 20% of commuters spend more than one hour each way commuting to work. Meath County Council is working with community organisations and businesses to provide options for workers who could work remotely but don’t have the home facilities or environment to facilitate it.

Meath County Council is working with Connectedhubs.ie to provide a simple easy booking system to access co-working spaces across the county. The Council is also working with Grow Remote to promote the remote working opportunities for the highly skilled work force who want to change jobs to improve their quality of life.
